Re: Petrie departs…..

Hotpoint being the brand of the fridge freezer that had an electrical fault causing the fire in Grenfell. Also the largest supplier of domestic appliances in the UK..... The fridge/freezer is 7th on the list of domestic appliances most likely to cause an electrical fire yet people trust them enough...

Battling hard and taking their points when they can.

Need to stay in it as long as possible.

Can’t afford to give Toulouse an inch though.
They gave them a few yards. At least somebody had a worse second half than us albeit agin better opposition

Re: Clermont v Ulster, Saturday April 13 12:30pm (UK Time) TNT Sports - Actual Channel TBC

Maybe time to restart the Positives and Negatives post match thread. Positives - Ulster rugby has a hitherto unknown Turnover King Negatives - everything else. To be fair to him, he got turned over right in front of me last week. Half assed attempt at a clear out that led to a penalty. It seems Lei...

Re: Montpellier v Ulster, Sunday April 7 12:30pm KO (UK Time), Viaplay Sports

Justin Cooney’s tackle was high it was the tackle by ToT which was a harsh call My point is basically that a referee and his known disposition can effect how a team play and players performance and imo Ulster were trying to play within that frame work although Cooney was getting a little frustrated...

Re: Montpellier v Ulster, Sunday April 7 12:30pm KO (UK Time), Viaplay Sports

Clermont will be a big ask however they bear no resemblance to their team of 5-6 years ago. They beat the Cheetahs 27-22 yesterday in what was Ruan Pienaar’s very last game of professional rugby. Have a great retirement Ruan and thank you for all you did for Ulster rugby! Over 400 senior games. Som...

Re: Montpellier v Ulster, Sunday April 7 12:30pm KO (UK Time), Viaplay Sports

Does the ban on SA sides hosting semifinals apply to the challenge Cup as well as the champions Cup? Not that I'm expecting ulster to win next week but would a semi against the sharks have to be held in Europe? "A home semi". Where have I heard that before? :scratch: It'll be Dublin won't...

Murphy will likely get a 3 year contract on the strength of that

On Good Morning Ulster last week Sarah Brett said "this year the boat race crews will not be able to toss their cox in the water". Pretty sure I heard stifled laughter in the background.
